One of our lovely, new children has been telling us about the ducks that he and his sister have at home.\u00a0 The duck in the above pictures is “Daddles” – she is a girl and lays eggs.\u00a0 His other duck is called Zachary Quack. He was very excited about having a duck rhyme as our rhyme of the week!\u00a0 We are very excited to have a duck owner in nursery!!!<\/p>\n

FIVE little ducks went swimming one day,<\/span>
Over the hill and far away.<\/span>

Over the hill and far away.<\/span>

Over the hill and far away.<\/span>
Mamma duck said: ‘Quack, quack, quack, quack!’<\/span>
And all her five little ducks came back.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This is a great rhyme as the rhyming words are very easy for children to spot.\u00a0 It also gives us a chance to count down, instead of up, reinforcing our understanding of how numbers correspond to items and demonstrating what numbers actually mean.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
